Error description

  7.2 instrumentation says the customer..
  
  
  Our (LVM) settings before instrumentation:
  
  -Xhealthcenter:port=13051
  -Xshareclasses:none
  -Xmnx384m
  -Xgcpolicy:gencon
  -Xmns384m
  -Xdump:java:events=systhrow,filter=java/lang/StackOverflowError,
  range=1..2 -Xtrace
  -Xverbosegclog:${LOG_ROOT}/${SERVER}/gc.log,5,2000
  -Xdisableexplicitgc
  
  
  ITCAM settings after instrumentation:
  
  -Xss1536K
  -Xdisableexplicitgc
  -Xgcpolicy:gencon
  -Xhealthcenter:port=16225
  -Xdump:java:events=systhrow,filter=java/lang/StackOverflowError,
  range=1..2
  -agentlib:am_ibm_16=${WAS_SERVER_NAME}

  Result is: GC Log Rotation is diabled or removed.
  
  -Xverbosegclog:${LOG_ROOT}/${SERVER}/gc.log
  
  As you can see the original
  -Xverbosegclog:${LOG_ROOT}/${SERVER}/gc.log,5,2000 is changed to
  -verbosegc -Xverbosegclog:${LOG_ROOT}/${SERVER}/gc.log
  After the 7.2 DC is configured.
